Summary
What Arthur knows: Merlin, his clumsy and foolish servant, is actually quite smart. He’s also loyal, and brave, and in many ways the reason Arthur has so many good people in his life.
The goal: Make Merlin realize how important he is to Arthur, no matter how stubborn he's clearly chosing to be about it.
What Arthur does not know, yet: Merlin has magic. Also they're very slightly a little bit in love.
It's going to take them a while to figure it all out. Meanwhile the knights have known for ages, Gwen figures it out pretty quick, and pretty much all of Camelot has also known ever since that weird peasant stumbled through the gates and challenged the Prince all those years ago.

Summary
“You want to court me?” Merlin laughed. “What on- are you just practicing for asking Gwen or something?”
“No.” Arthur said, glowering. “I’m asking you because I want to court you. If I wanted to court Gwen, I’d be asking her, wouldn’t I, you idiot!”
Merlin stared at Arthur in astonishment. “You actually want to court me? You’re not joking?”
“Of course I’m not joking!” Arthur stomped over to a cupboard and took out a vase of flowers. “I got you flowers and everything!”

A map of the Kingdoms of Albion, based on show data, canon maps, historical maps, and a bit of fudging to get it all to fit together nicely. Canon-compliant and based circa season 2. Includes chapters on: demographics, travel on foot/by horse, and known locations.
Now contains a detailed map of the Kingdom of Camelot!
Please feel free to use this as a fannish resource!

Summary
And then there was Arthur, not shouting at him like everyone else, but smiling, and mouthing, ‘Come on, dove’.
Or something like that. Merlin wasn’t that good at lip-reading and Arthur’s lips could be distracting. Maybe he wasn’t mouthing ‘dove’, he was saying… Well, not love, obviously… He was saying come! Like, repeating that Merlin should be joining them.
Yes. Absolutely.
Five times Merlin is called dove and one time he can't side-explain it, no matter how much he tries.

Summary
“But you shouldn’t be alone, Arthur.” Merlin’s eyes are sad, so sad and disappointed, he never wanted to make Merlin disappointed, it’s even worse than when his father used to be- “You have your councillors. Sure they speak a load of bull, but they can be helpful occasionally.”
Arthur tries not to snort, glancing away, continuing to wipe at his face with the washcloth. He half-wishes Merlin would stop, but something tells him the prattle will soon turn interesting.
And sure enough, the next words out of Merlin’s mouth are, “You could get a Queen.”
In Arthur's humble opinion, Merlin comes up with the strangest ideas... But sometimes those ideas do turn into favourable outcomes.
But this whole marriage thing may take it a bit too far...Series

Next time Merlin said he needed to be elsewhere, Arthur vowed to listen to him. If he had, maybe there wouldn't be a foreign king with a mutilated hand in the council chambers.

Summary
“So let me get this straight,” Arthur said, folding his fingers together as the man in front him awkwardly shifted. “You are under the impression if you win the favor of my servant that you will then win my favor?” he asked and the nobleman shifted again.
“Well, sire,” he said “That is the common consensus among… the chatter.”
“The chatter,” Arthur repeated and his mind flashed to all the kindness Merlin had received from other nobles. Dear God.
Or
Merlin has all of Camelot (and neighboring kingdoms) wrapped around his finger and Arthur is beginning to resign himself to the fact his servant somehow has more power than he does.

Summary
Before his third year of Hogwarts has even begun, Harry faces three whole weeks of unsupervised time in Diagon Alley. In that time he takes a trip to Gringotts - and that changes everything.
Burdened with the knowledge that Dumbledore has been blocking his family magic, and manipulating far more than he ever thought possible, Harry doesn't know who he can trust; but he knows he can't keep going that way. There's a whole world of lore and politics and history to catch up on, and the more he learns, the more Harry realises his true place in the world, and how much is being kept hidden from him. All the while, Dumbledore's twinkling eyes are constantly watching, and Harry can't let on how much he knows.
With help from unexpected places, Harry starts on a journey to end the war, and reshape the wizarding world. With how much he looks like James Potter, people have forgotten one important thing about him - he is Lily Evans' son, and she was one hell of a witch.

Summary
In a strange and unexpected set of circumstances, Izuku and Katsuki find themselves sharing their dreams together whenever they happen to fall asleep at the same time.
Being hopelessly in love with each other, they don’t mind it all that much. What better way to spend time with your crush than in a stupidly vivid dream?
Except, neither of them have realised that the other isn’t actually just a part of their imagination. And, of course, seeing as they are hopelessly in love with each other, that makes it a little difficult to hide your true feelings.

Made for the BKDK Big Bang 2020.

Summary
After losing Arthur, Merlin semi-accidentally travels back in time. In an attempt to change the future, Merlin takes Morgana under his wing and trains her in magic, all the while trying to pretend he's not still in love with an Arthur who doesn't remember that they used to be married (in the future, that is), keeping an eye out for Morgause, and juggling Camelot's run of the mill crises. You know, the usual manservant stuff.
Aka two idiots make a mess for 55k lmao.

Summary
Queen Ygraine lives, and magic isn’t banned even if it is on thin ice. Merlin comes to Camelot, and just as before he saves Arthur’s life, but this time he doesn’t need to keep his magic hidden, or hidden from Arthur at least.
It’s all spoiled by the arrival of the Questing Beast. Once again, Nimueh takes Ygraine’s life to save Arthur’s.
Magic is banned. Merlin finds himself fleeing Camelot in the wake, and Arthur finds himself torn between his obligations to his father, and the safety of the man he... his dearest friend.
